winter and summer term

The project can be taken either in the 4th or 5th semester, provided that the prerequisites are met. These prerequisites must be fulfilled before the project begins. The project period is typically within a single semester. However, there is the option to extend the project over two semesters if necessary activities (e.g., sowing, harvesting) require it. In this case, the project group registers their project in the summer term, but the examination is conducted at the end of the winter term.

The practical project is an essential part of the curriculum, enabling students to apply the theoretical foundations learned during their studies to real-world problems in science and practice. These problems come from the broad fields of the study programs "Management of Sustainable Food Systems" and "Food Production". In addition to technical knowledge, the practical project focuses on developing interdisciplinary skills such as project management, academic research, communication, teamwork, and self-management. Furthermore, students have the opportunity to work on real-world problems in collaboration with companies. This provides them with valuable insights into professional practice while contributing to solving current challenges. The practical project ideally prepares students for the practical training project and the bachelor's thesis.

Based on the subject matter learned in the first four semesters and the methods acquired in the 'Scientific Work and Project Management' module, students work in teams to address concrete problems from science and practice.

The total workload for the module is 300 hours (see also "ECTS credit points and grading").

• Project Report, written and Presentation

For the determination of the overall grade, the project report is weighted at 75% and the presentation at 25%.

For the presentation of a project group, a total of 30 minutes is allocated, with 20 minutes for the presentation and 10 minutes reserved for the discussion with the audience. The length of the project report will be coordinated with the supervising instructor. A guideline of 15 pages per group member applies.
